Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Crawl Space Repair in Tullahoma, TN

This customer in Tullahoma, TN, called Frontier due to failing crawl space supports and moisture issues. We decided on a crawl space encapsulation and SmartJacks to stabilize the crawl space. Once the structure was stabilized with our SmartJack system, we started the encapsulation process. This included installing our Drainage matting, CleanSpace liner, and a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier.

Crawl Space During Inspection

Moisture, mold and falling, failing insulation are problems in this crawl space, which hasn't been properly sealed.

Rotting Beams

When crawl spaces are damp, humid, or experience flooding, they become an ideal environment for mold and rot. Termites, carpenter ants, wood-eating beetles, and other damaging insects may also feed on organic materials in the crawl space. As the wood deteriorates, it will no longer be able to support your home, leading to significant structural damage.

Moisture Issue

Moisture issues are clearly visible in this photo. The walls are seeping, the old vapor barrier has been dragged down by mud and debris. The encapsulation treatment totally separates and protects the crawl space interior from outdoor conditions, keeping the space clean and dry.

Crawl Space Debris

All the crawl space debris is bagged up and removed from the crawl space and hauled out.

Drainage Matting

Drainage matting is added over the crawl space floor. This dimpled plastic sheet material promotes good drainage over the entire crawl space floor.

Vents Sealed with SilverGlo Panels

Sealing your crawl space vents stops the cycle of cold, humidity, and moisture entering from the outside air.

CleanSpace Installed

One key ingredient in our encapsulation system is the CleanSpace vapor barrier, a super-durable 20-mil plastic sheet designed to permanently prevent moisture, outside air, and pests from entering your crawl space.

SmartJack Installation

The SmartJack Crawl Space Stabilizer is an adjustable supplemental support system used for sagging crawl spaces. It not only provides supplemental support to your failing structure -- it can also often lift failing floor joists or beams, restoring them to their original position.

Superior Support

Our crawl space support system can support vertical loads exceeding 60,000 pounds, which is far stronger than conventional concrete repairs.

Crawl Space Sealed

Crawl space sealing and insulation will help you avoid unnecessary repairs, create a healthier living space, and save money on your utility bills. And once you've encapsulated your crawl space with a vapor barrier, you've gained valuable storage space in your home.
